How trump doesn't incite violence?


president donald trump was on a riff about border control agents working to prevent migrants from crossing the border while speaking at his Wednesday night rally in Panama City Beach, Fla.

“You have hundreds and hundreds of people and you have two or three border security people that are brave and great — And don't forget, we don't let them and we can't let them use weapons. We can't. Other countries do. We can't. I would never do that. But how do you stop these people?" the president said.

As the president posed that question — a rally attendee in the crowd shouted: “shoot them.”

The president paused and instead of condemning the remark he said: “That’s only in the panhandle, can you get away with that statement."

The crowd erupted in cheers and laughter — after another brief pause, trump repeated: “Only in the panhandle.”


Are you fukcing kidding me???  America will be great again when this moron is out of office.

 How does acknowledging that a specific geographical location in the US is more likely to make a statement about shooting somebody qualify as "inciting" violence.

 By my definition inciting an act requires more than condemnation or speaking against it.  Legally I can not be convicted of inciting a crime by having no opinion of it, or acknowledging that it can happen in a specific location more often that another.

Fair enough, I concede - perhaps not the best choice of words.  But to make light of shooting people at the border is no less damaging than inciting violence in my opinion.  He's stirring up these types of people who don't need any stirring...  Truly deplorable...

More hypocrisy from the tt

“That’s only in the panhandle, can you get away with that statement.”
any sane, rational person would condemn that kind of talk than to make light of it.

Gosh, not a problem when a, ‘comedian’, walks around with a severed bloody head likeness.
Not a problem when a, ‘artist’, paints derogatory photos, and hangs them in windows.
Not a problem when a ‘comedian’ says, ’someone should shoot him’.
Not a problem when a, ‘comedian’, trashes, every show.
Not a problem when all sorts of ‘Hollywood Elite’s, say really nasty things.

Non of those are, ‘inciting’, violence’.
And of course, all those are totally, ’Sane’, talk/practices.
(Sane if one is a UL, FDS, Socialist)

Who say:
I am free to say/do, what ever I want to Condemn the POTUS.
Yet you, cannot say ANYTHING, to support the POTUS.

So leftist chasing Senators out of restaurants, protesting in front of conservative commentators homes, and shouting down speakers doesn't incite violence?  Not to mention referring to Trump as Hitler and supporters as Nazis. Wouldn't anyone traveling back in time kill Hitler as a youngster given the chance?

Yeah, if you read my response to Eegore, you'll see that I conceded that I used the wrong simile.

Maybe you should address the fact that trump made light of a guy suggesting that we shoot people at the border, mark- unless you're OK with that.

Are you?
